No study has evaluated the effects of hand dominance and whole-body adiposity on limb composition in patients with LE. This study's purpose was to compare soft tissue composition of affected and unaffected limbs of women with breast cancer, who did and did not have LE, controlling for dominance and percent body fat.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Whole-body DXA scans were acquired and included measures of percent body fat, upper limb total mass, upper limb fat mass, and upper limb fat-free mass. Participants were classified into one of three groups: women without LE; women with only subjective LE; and women with objective signs of LE at the time of assessment. Differences among the LE groups were evaluated using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Chi-square analyses. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to control for percent body fat and for the affected limb dominance. Compared to women without LE, women with objective signs of LE have greater total limb mass, fat mass, and fat-free mass in their affected limbs, independent of affected side dominance and percent body fat. In addition, the interlimb differences in total mass, fat mass, and fat-free mass were greater for the women with objective signs of LE, compared to the other two groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>DXA is useful in identifying soft tissue changes in patients with LE. Given that limb circumferences measure only changes in limb volume and that bioimpedance provides estimates of extracellular fluid, DXA has the advantage of being able to estimate the volumes of specific tissues in the limb.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1089\/lrb.2021.0030","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,18]],"date-time":"2021-11-18T12:11:56Z","timestamp":1637237516000},"page":"391-397","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Use of Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry to Assess Soft Tissue Composition in Breast Cancer Survivors With and Without Lymphedema"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Betty J.","family":"Smoot","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Judy","family":"Mastick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"John","family":"Shepherd","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Hawaii Cancer Center, Honolulu, Hawaii, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Steven M.","family":"Paul","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kord M.","family":"Kober","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bruce A.","family":"Cooper","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yvette P.","family":"Conley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Niharika","family":"Dixit","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marilyn J.","family":"Hammer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, Massachusetts, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mei R.","family":"Fu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing, Boston College, Boston, Massachusetts, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gary","family":"Abrams","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5170-2027","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christine","family":"Miaskowski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA."},{"name":"School of Nursing, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1097-0142(19981215)83:12B <2798::AID-CNCR28>3.0.CO;2-E"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.21037\/gs.2017.11.04"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Ridner SH Pathophysiology of lymphedema.
